Amino Acid Analyzer Market

Amino Acid Analyzer: Introduction

• Commonly, organic compounds having -NH 2 (amino group) and -COOH (carboxyl group) in the molecular structure are called amino acids
• Amino acid analysis is a method based on ion exchange liquid chromatography. This method is used in a wide range of applications to provide quantitative and qualitative compositional analysis.
• Amino acid analyzer is a specifically configured system optimized for analysis of free amino acids. The amino acid analyzer is utilized for diverse applications such as detection of presence of amino acids in various solutions such as plant and animal tissues, extracellular and intracellular fluids, beverage juices, broths and fruits, and detection of presence of hydrolyzed amino acids, such as found in collagen, protein, peptides, and processed foods.
• Amino acid analyzer is employed in various applications such as to estimate the amount of protein or peptide, estimate degree of purity, estimate concentration of protein/peptide solution, determine amino acid composition, estimate amount of unusual amino acids, and identify proteins in databases

Key Drivers of Global Amino Acid Analyzer Market

• Usage of amino acid analyzer in drug discovery has been increasing for the last few years. Thus, increased application of amino acid analyzer in drug discovery is expected to drive the market during the forecast period.
• According to an article published in Nature Research, amino acid analyzers help in the search for new bio-therapeutics. Amino acid analyzers provide quantitative and qualitative information of the amino acid composition of a protein or peptide hydrolysate by using continuous flow ion exchange liquid chromatography; hence, they can help researchers to characterize bio-therapeutics. This is expected to drive the global amino acid analyzer market during the forecast period.
